Finally, after the driver jumped several other road dividers and sped on Emmons Avenue, command police called the cops off the chase for safety reasons.

From there, Quinzi and Flynn went to the address under which the car was registered. They found that the auto belonged to an elderly man, who allowed his caretaker to use the car for local errands.

Allegedly, the caretaker’s husband took the vehicle without anybody’s permission. The man, a known burglar with a suspended license, apparently took the car in order to go buy drugs on Cropsey Avenue, police said.

After learning the driver’s address, Quinzi and Flynn went to the man’s home and arrested him without incident.

Quinzi is from Bensonhurst and has been a cop for a little more than four years.

“I’ve always wanted to do it [be a cop] since I was a kid,” he said. “I always wanted to help people out and couldn’t ask for a better job.”
